Let’s start with keeping a long story short about my, almost 2 months, absence from Second Life, aka the ;TLDR version of why I have been gone for a while. After the Fantasy Faire in SL, Real Life hit me hard. Starting with hurting my back at working-out – which took me a few weeks…

A hint of Gay
This week I received the sad news that an old Second Life friend has passed away, in real life. While we were not close friends, we did catch up every now and then and ran into each other in various clubs and parties and events. Sir Ian Undercroft, a gentleman pur sang, proud of his…
The Black Tulip Camera HUD
Yes, that is right. I am going to tell something about a product! And only because I am very excited about it and think every Second Life Photographer will want to have it! The Black Tulip Camera HUD. I have never used a camera HUD in SL before, as I just fiddle along and accepted…
Ten of my favourite SL photos (by other people) of 2016
Originally posted on What the Huck?:
Following on from my post on Tuesday, where I shamelessly self-promoted my ten most favourited own pictures at Flickr this year, I thought I’d look today at some of my favourite pictures of the year by other photographers. Disclaimer: I lay no claim to this being any sort of…
It is probably nothing…
‘While you are here, why don’t you do this check-up? It has been a year and it is probably all fine’ ‘Put your chin on that cushioned piece and lean against the bar up there, now sit still, I told you it won’t hurt and it will surely all be just fine’ ‘You are doing…
It’s the season after all!
While I usually do not really blog items, I love to make an exception for this awesome prop with animations. It made me laugh out loud in real life when I tried it out, and since it has a really cool animation…I had to make a short video to show it – a picture would…
One hand in my pocket
December. The last month of the year, typically making me look back and reflect on real life and Second Life. Going through my files filled with pics of locations, events and all that…I stumbled upon an online karaoke session and recording I did with Ratt, a dear friend, who left Second Life years ago, but…
Stop.Reset.Breathe – A reply-post
My friend Beth has gone through a rough Second Life summer and today she posted an article on her blog, explaining why she has reset her Second Life past and purged her Flickr, virtually erasing a couple of months. I think we, Second Life residents, can relate to that. Second Life is, for most, not…
Just say ‘yes’
“It has been too long since we’ve met, I am glad I finally have some time for a chat. You are my best friend and I am sorry for having been so quiet, I have missed you so, so much. And because you are important to me I would love to have you sitting on…
Reciprocal
Reciprocal, one of those words I cannot pronounce out loud without breaking my tongue. Admitting the Dutch word for it (wederkerig) is so old-fashioned, I doubt anyone born before 1960 knows what it means! Why this pondering over a word I cannot pronounce properly and which is so out of date in my native language?…
Honest
“Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters” ― Albert Einstein The other night I was inworld, listening to my own playlist on iTunes and posing for some pictures – just for the fun of it. It relaxes me. In the right of my screen was one of…
Ketchup or…Watskeburt!?
You know that feeling, you go on about your life and stuff and one day it is summer and the next it’s autumn and some weeks have passed by? I’ve had a couple of those weeks lately, those weeks I had all kind of plans and before I knew it, it wasn’t Monday anymore but…
Show your Halloween Spirit
Yes. A post about Halloween. By me. Shocking eh? Since I am probably one of the very few in Second Life who does not particularly like or even care about Halloween much. Anyway! Linden Lab announced in a blogpost by Xiola Linden, a call for photos depicting your Halloween Spirit. They will choose some of…
When life gives you pears!
Over the past years I started some groups on Flickr – with themes. Just for fun, so people could add their photo’s that fitted in the same theme and so create some wonderful collections for all to enjoy. While it was fun at first, it became a burden – specially the past 2 years. Oh,…
Maybe that is why
the old man could not remember and didn’t recognize any of his children, nor his wife except the little pup his daughter brought on visits he knew her name and her favourite treats maybe that’s why when the old man went on his last journey the pup, just like that, traveled with him so he…
